Fuel Additive?
Hey gang, I've been running Motorcraft pm22 fuel treatment in my '18 350 6.7, I'm wanting to change up to something better. Any of you running Hot Shots fuel treatment?
I know there's been numerous discussions on this, but when I search here even using advanced search I'd have to read for days to get through everything else that comes up. Thanks

When I use the advanced search, use "Additive" as the key word and select 17+ Super Duty and 6.7l forums it returns 34 pages (12 if I select threads). I didn't read through them but find these threads to be rather repetitive, with "this is what I use". Some only use that Motorcraft stuff and seem to like it.

I've been using Motorcraft pm22a pretty much since new, but was seeing what else was being used.

I’ve had my truck for four weeks, and hadn’t used additives until last night’s fill-up. I ordered the same Opti-lube XPD with long-neck bottles. I bought from Amazon… I will follow your experience next time.

I started with OptiLube XPD when I first got my truck. Bought the long neck bottles and a gallon jug. After I finished with it I switched over to Hot Shots EDT. I can’t say that I have noticed anything different between the 2, and everything’s doing just fine so far. The one difference is the Hot Shots is quite a bit less expensive and the dosage is a smaller amount. Both seem to be just as “proven” as the other so I am just going to stick with Hot Shots. Besides this, I also run the Better Diesel FBC in every tank too.
